The applications of spectroscopic ellipsometry for the precise characterization of liquid-liquid and liquid-air interfaces include surface science, biomedical applications, thin film coatings, and ...

A drop is a small volume of liquid, bounded completely or almost completely by free surfaces. Due to the different refractive indexes of water and air, refraction and reflection occur on the surfaces ...

The Refractive Index Matching (RIM) test rig at the University of Bristol is a specialised closed-circuit flow facility designed for high-resolution measurements within and around complex geometries.

Every physicist knows that refraction causes light to bend as it passes from air into water. But in a chiral liquid, refraction is a little different: the light splits into two separate beams of ...

New data from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will assist in the design of optics for liquid immersion lithography, an old idea that recently has attracted new interest as a ...
